Kentz re-aligns global business units

Engineering and construction group Kentz has re-aligned the services offered through its three global business units.

The EPC (engineering, procurement and construction) business unit is being renamed Engineering and Projects to "accurately reflect the high value added professional services" that the unit executes. It will incorporate Project Management Consultancy services, Global Engineering Services, and Valerus's operations, while also continuing to offer EPC and EPC management services.

Both Construction and TSS will remain as separate business units, although the resources, leadership and support will all be consolidated to maximise operating efficiency consistent with its client demands.

The two units will incorporate Construction, Remote Construction Services, Completions and Commissioning, Shutdowns and Turnarounds, together with General Support Services.

Kentz also announced the retirement of Eoin Hurley, the Chief Operating Officer of the Construction business unit. He will remain working on a part-time basis for the coming year.

Christian Brown, Chief Executive Officer of Kentz, said: "Given the successful growth Kentz has delivered in the past years, the recent acquisition of Valerus, and the growth plans we have for the future, we have reviewed how we offer our services to clients and moved to ensure we provide a clear and simple channel for attaining what are complex and valuable services.

"The board believes the re-alignment of some of our services provides a clearer structure and allows the Engineering and Projects business unit to achieve a level of scale that will enable its full growth potential and help market positioning with new and existing clients."
